Alright, I've done a search on the whole Lahman issue, checked the FAQ's, and everything, but I'm still having troubles. I don't really want to start a historical league at this time, but I was interested in following through with someone else's idea of importing historical players at the end of my regular season, having them retire, so that I could induct them into the HoF manually, and all of their career stats would also be included.

However, when I import a player from the FA screen (all I've tried is Ty Cobb thus far) he comes in as a pitcher, with NO career stats. I've read everything about how the birthdates & fielding percentages are usually messed up and need to be edited, but I thought it included all their career statistics.

I think I have the latest download of the database, and I'm running on STB 1.1, and the database is in an entirely separate folder from my STB folder. I've typed in the correct path to the database, and it actually does create Ty Cobb for the game, but as a pitcher & with NO career stats. What am I doing wrong to just import an individual player into a previously started league?
